Gevelsberg Hauptbahnhof

Hbf intro|Gevelsberg is a railway station in the municipality of Gevelsberg in western Germany.

Operational usage

The station is unique in the fact that it is the only Hauptbahnhof in Germany that is served exclusively by S-Bahn trains. This is because Gevelsberg as a municipality is a relatively recent creation, and traditionally Ennepetal (Gevelsberg) on the direct line from Wuppertal to Hagen carries most of the regional and mid-distance traffic for Ennepetal and Gevelsberg. Whilst Gevelsberg Hbf therefore is more central to Gevelsberg, it does not offer any connections other than the S8 trains running in 20-minute intervals, making it one of the least busy train stations in Germany.
